Catsup, Pickles, and the Radical Left
by Paul R. Hollrah
Maria Teresa Thiersten Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry was born in
Mozambique, the daughter of a Portuguese physician, and was educated in
Switzerland and South Africa. Fluent in five languages, she was working as a
United Nations interpreter in Geneva in the mid-60's when she met a handsome
young American, H. John Heinz, III, who worked at a bank in Geneva. He told
her his family was "in the food business."
They were married in 1966 and returned to Pittsburgh where his family ran
the
giant H.J. Heinz food company. He was elected to the U.S. House of
Representatives in 1971, and in 1976 he was elected to the first of three
terms in the United States Senate.
Senator H. John Heinz was a friend of mine - not a close friend, not a
golfing
buddy, but a friend nonetheless. The last time I saw him alive was, oddly
enough, in the men's restroom at the Maverick Steakhouse, a favorite
nighttime
eatery and watering hole for politicians and lobbyists in Harrisburg,
Pennsylvania.
The senator was standing at a wash basin, drying his hands, when I entered
the
room. When he turned and saw me he rushed toward me, threw his arms around
me, and said, "Paul, it's good to see you!" All I could do was mumble,
"Senator, do you really think we should be seen hugging each other in a
men's restroom?" He didn't think so, and neither did I, but we shared a good
laugh over his impromptu display of affection.
Several years later, in 1991, he was killed when his plane collided with a
Sun Oil Company helicopter over a Philadelphia suburb - the same helicopter
that I often used to travel between Philadelphia and Washington, DC. The
senator,
his pilot and co-pilot, and both of Sun's helicopter pilots were killed. He
was survived by his wife, Teresa, and their three young sons.
Four years later, after inheriting Heinz's $500 million fortune, she married
Senator John Forbes Kerry, the liberal junior senator from Massachusetts.
She became a registered Democrat and the process of her radicalization was
set in motion.
Heinz Kerry is not shy about telling people that she required Kerry to sign
a pre-nuptial agreement before they were married. John Kerry may not have
check-writing privileges on the Heinz catsup and pickle fortune, but he is
certainly a willing and uncomplaining beneficiary of it. A lot of
hard-earned money,
made through many years of hawking catsup, pickles, and soup, has fallen
into the hands of two people who despise successful entrepreneurship and who
believe in the confiscatory redistribution of wealth.
So how does Mrs. Heinz Kerry spend John Heinz's money? Just one example:
According to the G2 Bulletin, an online intelligence newsletter of
WorldNetDaily, in the years between 1995-2001 she gave more than $4 million
to an organization called the Tides Foundation. And what does the Tides
Foundation do with John Heinz's money?
* They support numerous anti-war groups, including Ramsey Clark's
International Action Center. Clark has offered to defend Saddam Hussein when
he's tried.
* They support the Democratic Justice Fund, a joint venture of the Tides
Foundation and billionaire hate-monger George Soros. The Democratic Justice
Fund seeks to ease restrictions on Muslim immigration from "terrorist"
states.
* They support the Council for American-Islamic Relations, whose leaders are
known to have close ties to the terrorist group, Hamas.
* They support the National Lawyers Guild, organized as a communist front
during the Cold War era. One of their attorneys, Lynne Stewart, has been
arrested for helping a client, Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, communicate with
terror cells in Egypt. He is the convicted mastermind of the 1993 World
Trade
Center bombing.
* They support Planned Parenthood, the National Abortion Rights Action
League,
and the Abortion Action Project.
* They support the most violent of all homosexual action groups, ACT-UP.
* They support the "Barrio Warriors," a radical Hispanic group whose primary
goal is to return all of Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas to
Mexico.
These are but a few of the radical groups that benefit, through the
anonymity
provided by the Tides Foundation, from the generosity of our would-be first
lady - the wealthy widow of Republican senator John Heinz, and now the wife
of the Democratic senator who aspires to be the 44th President of the United
States.
If voters will only try to imagine a woman such as Teresa Heinz Kerry, the
fairy godmother of the radical left, laying her head on a pillow each night
just inches from the President of the United States, hopefully they will
decide that the only way these two will ever be allowed into the White House
is with an engraved invitation in hand.
As I recall that somewhat embarrassing chance meeting in the men's restroom
at the Maverick Steakhouse in Harrisburg, instead of mumbling some inane
nonsense about getting caught in a friendly embrace, I wish now that I'd had
the good sense to whisper in his ear, "John! Go home! Get a lawyer! Change
your will!"
But, of course, we didn't know her then, did we?
Please pass this on and together we can make a difference.

Subject: Teresa Heinz Kerry
Would you like to know who Teresa Heinz Kerry
really is? As a result of this email I've copied below, I searched on Tides
Foundation and found, among lots of other hits, the following article in the
Front Page Magazine. After you read the following quoted email, you might want
to check out the article. My friends, this is big scary stuff we are facing in
the election at the end of this year. Extremely serious issues face us and I
hope you will all give serious thought to who you will vote for. Some of you
may hate President Bush and vow never to vote for him but I beg you to
consider what you will get instead if you vote for Kerry. He and his wife may
be
worse.
